If you only caught memes of Olympic breaking/breakdancing, here are some highlights of the incredible bboys
Including Phil Wizard,

“Continue to fall short in the postseason”… the man won a chip last calendar year on one of the greatest clinching performances of all time. Get your brain checked lol

Maybe not explicitly promoting it but definitely propagating it. It’s so disingenuous to say “I’m just posting this, I can post whatever I want” and not take any responsibility for the content or consequences of what you post.
That’s some Trump level BS
Scottie Barnes and Gradey Dick looking like the Splash Dinos vs Boston
They’ve combined for 7 threes and 29 points in the first 8 minutes as the Raps lead 36-20
@JLew1050
Completely missed the point. All of the players listed have different reasons for being booed, some valid and some not. Like of course you can boo opposing players like Pierce and Embiid. Booing someone who was integral to winning you a chip is a different story
For everyone who judged the sport based on internet memes of Raygun, please go watch the highlights of all the great athletes
Not just the boys but the girls too - Ami, Nicka, India, 671, and Syssy all had incredible performances and deserve some love

You can still do fresh while staying true to the team’s core identity and colors. Alternate schemes (like say Toronto black and gold or pink Miami Vice) should only be changed a max of once every 5 years
So many jerseys these days could belong to any team in the NBA
@YAnunoby
Maybe it had something to do with adding a 1st team all-NBA player in Shai, a 2nd team all-defense player in Brooks, and various other useful NBA players like Barrett, Dort, Olynyk, and Powell
This was the roster in 2019 when Nurse coached:

Doesn’t give fans the right to harass players when their bets don’t hit. Gambling has polluted the game in a major way

Yep the Wolves like to use decoy plays and actual decoys.
That’s a fan dressed up as Ant. The real Ant is in the locker room with some spicy tenders and blackened ranch ✊🏽

Average age can be misleading unless weighted by actual minutes played.

Brooklyn is 17th youngest, because their core rotation guys are mainly vets. Utah is 12th, while Memphis and Houston are 6th and 7th.
Dallas is 12th oldest, Toronto 15th. Heat/Bulls 7th/8th.

You don’t have to be loud to be a dog. Pat Bev is all bark and no bite.
OG Anunoby is quiet but he’s tough as nails. He’s like a german shepherd while Pat Bev is just a chihuahua
@Fiizop
It’s not just about the quality of athletes, different eras have different rules
Scoring is up 20ppg per team since Jordan’s last season. Jalen Brunson’s PPG would have been the 4th highest in ’98. He didn’t get better than hall of famers, the rules changed
@globeandmail
Epitomizes modern journalism that you would feature a giant picture of a person who has an opinion on the story rather than anything to do with the story itself.
Not to mention that you don’t note it is an opinion piece here because that won’t bring the clicks
@JonesOnTheNBA
It especially hurts bc dynamic pricing makes games with stars extra expensive… We dropped $2k to see Steph for the 1st time last season & he didn’t play
If teams charge premium prices to see stars, they should offer compensation if they’re out (merch, future discounts,whatever)
@kendra__andrews
The Lakers are blasting UB40 post shootaround. Anthony Davis yelled “turn that UB40 up!” while LeBron was drinking red red wine on the other end of the court.
@kathryngimborys
He only broke up with you because Cronin kept telling him he would get him help and he never did (src below)
It’s like if your partner of 11 years sold your house and car and pets for magic beans. He should at least put you up in a hotel of your choosing
It was almost impossible to find highlights of the bgirls breaking competition, so I tried to spread some of the bboys, but the IOC is copyright striking them
If a nobody with 150 followers could get 4 million views, there is an audience for this sport! Hope
@iocmedia
sees that

@coachthorpe
Not saying they’re the same but Magic sold a lot of tickets too. Just because a guy is flashy doesn’t mean he’s not effective - Ball was 35th in the NBA in RPM

I think you mean the Goddess of the Baseline
D-Live: “She used to always tell me she was always posting up. But her favorite move was just a little jumper from the short corner. She always told me she was the ‘Goddess of the baseline.’”

You’ll never find a more stand up guy than DeMar DeRozan. Great teammate and leader, humble, loyal, relentless work ethic, and a great dad to boot.
Truly one of the best role models in the NBA
This was a freak injury but Embiid was clearly not right before this play.
Which again brings up the question of why an injury-prone giant and Philly’s MVP has been playing 12 minute stretches (1st and 3rd quarters) all season. It makes zero sense.
@RTNBA
Every lineup should have
Curry
Giannis
Joker
Those three are the perfect complementary trio. The other two spots are debatable based on spacing and defense
@RGT_85
@ShamsCharania
Tim Connelly went from one of the greatest draft finds of all time in Jokic to one of the worst trades of all time. Gonna be hard to escape fraud status unless the Wolves make a finals.

@RealTBONEHusker
This is like those losers who take pictures of themselves in front of other people’s Lambos and pretend it’s their own.
Except it’s even worse because a Lambo is cool and this truck is just telling the world you’re a trashy, mentally-unbalanced weirdo.
Part of the Olympic charter is to secure the widest audience possible… that needs to include social media, especially for people who don’t have access to cable tv
@GuruLakers
Adam Silver: “With the first pick the San Antonio Spurs select Victor Wembanyama”
Lakers fans: “omg everyone is so obsessed with LeBron and the Lakers”
@RapsMuse
Y’all setting yourselves up for disappointment. Shai’s under contract for 4 more years and has turned into a superstar. OKC will switch gears to add talent around him if he signals he’s unhappy.
Celebrate the awesome team the Raptors have now instead of pining for who they don’t
This absurd three by Steph Curry may cap off the greatest two minutes by a single player in Olympic basketball history
Four straight threes/12 points to seal the gold
@SIChrisMannix
@TheDunkCentral
“The fight for Embiid will be tough. The U.S. needs to win it.”
Not sure why the US needs to go grovelling for players to represent it. You win or lose with the players who want to be there & represent the flag.
Treating it like free agency is against the spirit of the Olympics
